Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Andrew Grassie (born 1966) is a Scottish artist. Grassie paints highly detailed and self-referential tempera on paper copies of photographs.

He was educated at St Martins School of Art and the Royal College of Art.[1]

Grassie's work of the late 1990s and early 2000s included tempera on paper studies of the gallery interior in which they were exhibited (1997),[2] and small copies of photographs of 1960s minimalist sculpture (2002).[3]

In 2004, he won a "Special Merit" award at the 23rd John Moores Painting Prize for his work The Making of the Painting, which shows the space in which he made the painting.[1] In 2005 he had a solo exhibition at Tate Britain, as part of the Art Now series. He exhibited tiny paintings of an imaginary "rehang" of works from the gallery.[4] To make the paintings Grassie moved the actual works to the exhibition space, photographed them, and then made copies of the photographs in tempera.[5]

His paintings have been praised for being "disorienting" and "melancholy",[5] and criticised for consisting of "bureaucratic ironies".[4]

His works are held in the collection of the Tate[6] and the United Kingdom Government Art Collection.[7] He lectures at City and Guilds of London Art School.

Andrew Grassie is represented by Maureen Paley in London.
